Except that Ben Lesnick's quotes are very real and probably more recent. But we can't talk about that in here obviously it has no bearing on Star Citizen

Why would you *want* '*Arab girls Go Jihad in jewish cocks*', anyway :(? Wow, I should go on a killing rampage. People who do that seem to be pretty popular. If this keeps up I'm going to have to either kill everybody or stop saying stupid things. And you know which one I'll choose. Huzzah, downloaded the first episode of Pokemon Advanced Generation. Hehe, this is so great. May is pretty hot for a ten year old. You know what the best part of a guy randomly sniping people is? Stores and stuff are empty! Random sniping is actually pretty great... it's like a big snow day Jewish people don't drive busses. They run gold ring making companies and holocaust museums and delis. [B]You know what I hate? When some kid dies in a car accident people make a little pile of flowers and crap along the road.[/B] Hehehe, the fact that we have a gay mexican she-male working on the staff probably already offends people. buckets full of grenades are probably standard fare at muslim schools. I rape all kinds of stuff. Lets watch Friends. Ehh, cheeseburger subs are a lot like sex... you thrust your erect penis in and out until you achieve climax. Poor Old Nigger Thinks It's A Cadillac Hey. No disrespect or nuttin', but the man says there aint nothing fuckin' wrong wit da dead niggas. Oh, I followed several women who looked sort of like Kerri-Lee around the science museum, but none of them turned out to be her:~([/quote] Not to mention he has an entire 9 galleries dedicated to pictures of aforementioned Kerri-Lee. Creepy. He was 25 or so when he did all this, by the way. He clearly has no shame or he would have deleted all of this years ago. That kind of content is disgusting. Even with these revelations starting to hit the community, he's issued a blog statement that basically is summed up as "Oh, I was so wacky when I was younger." yet does not adequately explain why he is [B]still hosting the offensive content[/B]. It's real.

What about the allegation where he banned a woman who had dick pictures sent to her by one of the high spending backers? Or are you going to ask me for proof that this happened? Well that's funny, considering that you're judging Derek's character on something that may or may not have happened. Whereas all these Ben Lesnick quotes are 100% verified and endorsed by Ben Lesnick himself. Not to mention the initial complaint about Ben Lesnick silencing the dick picture incident came from a third party who had no axe to grind.

You assume because I am critical of CIG and Star Citizen that I support Derek. I do not. I am calling out Ben Lesnick on the fact he is unapologetic about hosting that content and still continues to.

[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;50146885]You are just here to cause drama, hence shitposting. Please stop.[/QUOTE] I am upsetting the status quo, not causing drama. It may be uncomfortable for people to read negative things about a game and company they cherish so much but it is necessary to show people that this is what is going on. There's no point in burying your head in the sand and pretending it is false, or irrelevant, or some kind of "elaborate goon hoax" as it has been called. Do you really condone the community manager of CIG hosting offensive hate speech on his own personal website? [QUOTE=the_killer24;50146894][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zBRtXTN.png[/IMG] totes.[/QUOTE] Because I interact with somebody on twitter doesn't mean that I support them. The question about the furniture list was because some people expressed scepticism about the amount of money CIG has spent on furniture. For example there was a lamp that was found to have cost a ridiculous amount of money, like a couple of thousand dollars. Derek claimed he had a costing list.

Hezzy, I'll make this simple, so you have no trouble understanding it. One guy's a pretty well-respected and very well-liked member of the CIG team, who has conducted himself admirably so far without any major issues. One is a guy who makes up shit, attempts to character assassinate Chris, his wife, even his staff, and spends all of his time stalking and doxxing people who cricitize him on the internet instead of actually working on his own space game, which, while he claims it's better than Star Citizen, is actually a piece of garbage so poor that I've seen better Source Engine mods made by teenagers. This man bans people from his forums who try to report bugs in his game, or offer any constructive criticism. He is the single most malicious human being I've ever encountered on the net, and I pity him. Furthermore, I wouldn't care if Star Citizen was headed by Adolf fucking Hitler so long as they could deliver a good game. And I say this as a member of a visible minority. Are you quite done threadshitting yet?

You're trolling, and that's reason enough to get the moderators involved.[/QUOTE] I have spoken with a moderator about my behaviour in this thread and I have done nothing ban worthy. I am discussing Star Citizen, the company developing it and the recent developments around this company. I am not insulting anybody, or trying to cause drama. I am however, aware that I am making people feel uncomfortable through the questions I ask and the opinions I put forward. I have personally checked all of the quotes that I posted against Ben Lesnick's personal website and they are all authentic. If I am upsetting you then you are more than free to place me on your ignore list so that you don't have to feel uncomfortable any more.

People say and do dumb shit when they're younger. His conduct while he's been with CIG has been exemplary. Hezzy, are you quite done threadshitting yet?

He's already been warned once about this behavior by a moderator. [QUOTE=Starpluck;50143599]Hezzy; settle down. This is your only warning.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Hezzy;50146945]Do you really condone the community manager of CIG hosting offensive hate speech on his own personal website?[/QUOTE] I'm a person who adds a teaspoon of cement to my weetbix each morning, so I don't give a shit if he has offensive material on his website. It's his call if he wants to keep it up. Maybe being community manager and all, he's actually being clever here and trying to avoid the streisand effect. You know what I don't condone? Dredging up old shit on the internet as ammo. New ammo is fair game, and old ammo is only acceptable for actually important things like court trials.

btw the guy responded here about it: [url]http://banditloaf.livejournal.com/105991.html[/url] [QUOTE]I’m not fond of deleting the past, or pretending anyone has always been perfect. I’ve spent my life becoming a better person, and I’m happy to let folks see where I've been. I suspect this journal doesn’t even show the worst of who I’ve been; the thing I most regret from years past was what a jerk I was on message boards. I’m sure that’s all out there to find, too! I don't want to say I've figured out how the world works, but I've learned to respect everybody else in it instead of imagining they're out to get me. [/QUOTE]

so how about that upcoming mining ship huh?

[QUOTE=krail9;50147083]so how about that upcoming mining ship huh?[/QUOTE] Any pictures?

[QUOTE=DasFroggy;50147089]Any pictures?[/QUOTE] the misc mining concept isn't revealed yet so no pics. they plan to reveal this month tho.

[QUOTE=Wii60;50147095]the misc mining concept isn't revealed yet so no pics. they plan to reveal this month tho.[/QUOTE] I am gravitating towards the notion of mining, though I long for suits that are far bulkier in aesthetic compared to what has been shown thus far.

concept goes up next friday, probably won't see details beforehand. Pricey pledge but 'entry level' for mining, doesn't sound promising unless you're SUPER excited for mining specifically If I wanted to mine I'd rather earn something like that ingame since I'd rather hand it off and upgrade to an orion when that becomes an option

[IMG]http://www.gearsonline.net/series/battletech/weapons/btech28.jpg[/IMG] A suit like the one on the [B][U]right[/U][/B], is what I desire. A hasty edit, as I had originally indicated the suit on the left, when I meant the one on the right. Many apologies!
